Information on the Lydia Beach in Port Barcarès (France)
Description and location of the Lydia Beach in Port Barcarès (66420)
Our opinion on the Lydia Beach
Lydia Beach in Port-Barcarès owes its name to the voluntarily beached ship located in its sand in the 1960s. It is one of the most famous beaches in Languedoc thanks to this boat where we find a casino and a discotheque. The beach spreads out on each side of the ship. The space is vast and is very agreeable since the road is not close by. There is a lifeguard in the summer. We find several private beaches and restaurants and mattress rentals, but public space is the majority. The beach is handicap accessible.
From the D83, you'll find access to this beach at exit number 14 and then take avenue du Paquebot. There is a large parking lot on the left side of the Gendarmerie.

Photos of the Lydia Beach
This picture was taken from the bridge of the Lydia looking toward the north. Further, we see the cliffs of Leucate.
Toward the south, the beach becomes more wild. The Pyrenees are visible.
We find a ship that was voluntarily beached in 1967 on this beach. In the summer, the first-aid station is installed next to the ship.
We find public and private beaches on each side of the ship.
To the north, we join the last beach of town, along the allee des Arts where we find several contemporary sculptures.
